  1. The New Order: Last Days of Europe - An Axis Victory Cold War Mod for HoIIV

    That and the fact that they're seething over how the poles smashed back the Bolsheviks in the Polish-Soviet war, thereby denying them their fantasy of a possible post-WW1 "world revolution".

    A Thorn In The Rose: A War Of The Roses TL

    The way this timeline works, no matter what the Lancastrian lords try to do the charming, handsome and oh so very clever and lucky Yorkists will thwart it. Can only throw double 6 so many times....well in real life anyway.
  4. AHC: Female Politburo

    Would have to be some sort of foundation shaking conscious change. Early during or after the revolution might be the best PoD. In the west women have been moving upwards from minor entry level leadership roles for over a century & theres still conscious opposition and a minority in the upper...

    Plausibility Check: Post USSR Russia with worlds 3rd biggest economy

    Uh if they kept the annexed land it would certainly help, especially since it increases sea access. Then it's a matter of leadership.

    The Forge of Weyland

    Good point! That's another bloc of voters in the isolationist turf of the midwest and northwest. Many of them did then and still do keep close ties with their relatives back in Norway too.
  7. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    FDR will get Congress to declare against the Japanese, but not immediatly ... the Japanese will have to make good progress against the British, I'm guessing as per OTL, 'freeing the natives under the heel of the evil Colonialist oppression' ... only when it's obvious that the natives are not...

    WI Operation Ten-Go Successful?

    There's an alternate history which I wrote and got published in one of @Grey Wolf's AH magazines. In that one it's Shinano that takes the place of Yamato on this almost futile mission. If you count success as getting grounded but not achieving substantially much, then that's what happened...
  9. "Most Interesting Scenario To You" Redux Thread

    Syrian-Egyptian Gnosticism overtakes nicean Christianity has the majority religion of the Roman empire. Neoplatonism becomes the majority religion of the Roman empire.

    What if the Mark 71 8"/55 gun wasn't cancelled?

    The Zumwalts were supposed to do ASW? With only one helicopter?
  11. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    Yup. There was a segment in Japan who thought they had won a lot more in that war. They kind of passed lightly over that Japan was out of cash & continuing required large loans only the London or New York banks could float. Neither the Brits or the US were interested in seeing the Russian...
  12. AHC: Female Politburo

    A candidate to Politburo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandra_Pavlovna_Biryukova Also there were many chairwomen of Supreme Soviets of the Soviet and autonomous republics, but it was a ceremonial post. They were not high in the Party hierarchy.
  13. April 1942 Alternate Indian Ocean

    I just found my mind wandering to Zheng's tale and thought I'd check-in. I hope he well and can continue his story soon.... Regards,
  14. Sports What Ifs.

    What if Baylor basketball gets the death penalty in the aftermath of the Patrick Dennehy murder? (Here's more information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baylor_University_basketball_scandal; while the Baylor football sexual assault scandal was awful, this was worse--a coach tried to smear a...

    Better 20th Century for France?

    Would a French intervention in the early 1930s have put a lid on Nazism, or only delayed the rise of something similar? The resentment and desire for a return to something like 1914 borders wouldn't simply go away.
  16. Other possible Nuke sites in Japan in case they still didnt surrender after the second nuke?

    The Plutonium core for the third bomb was enroute & there were a half dozen Fat Man devices on Titian ready to go. The other half of this is the fire bombing raids, the Navy raids, and small precision raids were not stopping. Those were continuing along with the attacks with the atomic...
  17. What are some cliches in a Central Powers victory TL?

    In terms of political culture isn't the Belle Époque - or the Fin de siècle, whatever the generic pan-European term for the Edwardian Age is- still going if the Central Powers win? Monarchy has been vindicated, liberal democracy has been struck back. It's not like feudalism will come back and...

    Threadmarks: Groups A-D 2020-21

    Group A saw Belgium take over, although the supposedly group favorites had trouble actually making it out, only finishing ahead of Sweden on particular difference. Colombia, who were expected to take second, finished third behind the Swedes, with Venezuela knocked out of both competitions...

    Better 20th Century for France?

    I'd say better from a general humanist perspective. Better life expectancy, less political strife, and hopefully less war on their home territory.
